Okay. Good point about the relative difficulties of testing too.

If info.rkt does not exist, it creates it and gives the 'collection-name

That doesn't seem like a good idea to me. As you've noted, there can be
problems with writing extra files. The collection name could be instead
computed in `pkg-single-collection',

What if the differentiation between User A and User B's Package P were
encoded in the version number, instead of the name. Semantically, that's
what we're dealing with, two different versions of the same package.
Directly after a fork, the packages would be Package P, version A.1.15, and
Package
Can't this be alleviated by the guidance on naming that the docs already
provide?

Also if you're going to memoize things, why are you using assoc rather than
a hash table? Or if at all possible, a weak hash table?

I'm using `procedure-closure-contents-eq?' as the equality predicate.
AFAIK, there's no hash table for

Good point. Might be an argument for a
procedure-closure-contents-hash-code function. Of course, never mind that
if you can forego memoization entirely.
